Welding (WPQR)
The main objective of WPQR is to test welded products by various methods in order to assure the required quality of weld joints and to significantly reduce the risk of possible defects and accidents.
Welding Procedure Qualification Record (WPQR) is issued by the Czech Welding Institute. These exams are recognized by international organizations and producers.
The certification for welding WPQR is recommended to all companies that seek to assure consistent quality of weld products and to improve their competitiveness.
Procedure to Obtain the Certification for WPQR
- Non-destructive testing see here
- Visual method
- Capillary method
- Method of whirling flows
- Ultrasound method
- Destructive testing
- Tensile test of a weld joint
- Tensile test in the transverse direction
- Bend test parallel to the welding direction
